text-similarity3

The textSimilarity function calculates the similarity between two strings using a substring matching approach. It can be customized with a specified substring length and case sensitivity. The function boosts the score if one string starts with or contains the other, and it returns a similarity score between 0 and 1.

Installation

You can install the package using npm, yarn, or pnpm.

pnpm add text-similarity3

yarn install text-similarity3

npm install text-similarity3

Usage

import { textSimilarity } from "text-similarity3";

const similarity1 = textSimilarity("hello world", "hello", 2); // Default parameters (substring length: 2, case insensitive)
console.log(similarity1);

const similarity2 = textSimilarity("JavaScript", "javascript", 2, true); // Comparison is case-sensitive and the strings differ in case
console.log(similarity2);

const similarity3 = textSimilarity("apple pie", "apple", 3); // Substring length of 3, ignoring case by default
console.log(similarity3);
